"Si dice che la vita sia composta da 12 stanze...
Stanza è una parola importante nella vita degli uomini, ma spesso è data per scontata. Eppure nel linguaggio vuol dire tanto, vuol dire poesia, canzone, libertà, affermarsi. Vuol dire persino costruire.
....Nella mia vita ho dei momenti in cui entro in una stanza che non mi è molto simpatica.... Una stanza che diventa buia, piccolissima eppure immensa....
Ma anche lei mi ha regalato qualcosa, mi ha incuriosito, mi ha ricordato la mia fortuna, mi ha fatto giocare con lei,
Si', perché la stanza è anche poesia... "
Per il maestro Ezio Bosso, che ci ha lasciato oggi 15 Maggio, a 48 anni, dopo tanta sofferenza
The poetry of life...

The plastic earth screws were no match for Bruno. We’ve had lots of visits from this bear and/or it’s friends.
In your garden, pull up any dead plants and lay them on the ground around healthy plants. You can also chop them up and mix them into the soil.
While leaves changing color in the fall are dying, they are not dead. A cold snap will kill the leaves the same as it will on the leaves of most your other plants.
We were surprised to look out to see these sweet ladies in our yard. One of them was very interested in our compost!
I feel terrible for wildlife lately because the air quality is horrendous due to the Canadian wildfires. For several days it’s been in the “unhealthy” and “very unhealthy” range, with a constant haze in the air. While we have the option of closing windows & filtering our air, they do not.
Superb Fairy-wrens were particularly observant and appeared already while I was busy with the compost and they seemed to be working alongside me.

I've hardly finished some work on a rather neglected compost át the back of friends' veggie garden when several neigbours from the adjacent National Park arrived to appreciate my work. The Satin Bowerbirds came in numbers and allowed me to observe their likes and dislikes, as well as the way they deal with the food on offer. TBC

We’ve been taking steps to impact the earth less and minimize our waste, such as reducing our plastic use and purchasing less. One thing I’ve been wanting to do for a while is to start composting again (we weren’t very successful with it several years ago), and after researching it for a while, we finally started. The bin works great for this environment because we tend to get a lot of dampness & humidity here. Plus, it’s made from untreated cedar instead of plastic. The pail is for keeping on our kitchen counter and is perfect, complete with a filter to keep the smells in the pail.
Il sole ormai è ormai calato all'orizzonte, e le tranquille acque del Lago di Garda presso Cisano, frazione di Bardolino (VR), riflettono gli ultimi colori del cielo. Momenti di distensiva tranquillità accompagnati solamente dai rumori della fauna selvatica.

[PT] Numa composição pouco vulgar, pelo facto de ser composto por três locomotivas, o Siderúrgico 83130 (vazio) ficou hoje a cargo 5035 "Sara", sendo que trazia consigo também as locomotivas 1904 e 4712 a reboque.
[EN] In an unusual composition, due to the fact that it consists of three locomotives, the Siderúrgico 83130 (empty) was today in charge of 5035 "Sara", and it also carried locomotives 1904 and 4712 in tow.

In questo caso la Br155.244 corre verso Nord attraverso l'outerring orientale al traino di un corto convoglio composto da tramogge. (23/5/13)
I was a little bothered that my photographer friend was able to whip out his phone and get la perfect HDR in one shot, so I took it as a challenge. I consider this as much digital art as photography, and not really the kind of photo I strive for

Trash- It seems to me after review of the pictures before me, we could do a lot of composting and recycling to reduce the world waste stream. Unfortunately this tea bag creates landfill in it's packaging. The acid loving plants enjoy the tea bag it's self. I start the day creating waste, perhaps a different brand in the future.

This is what our compost looks like at the moment. It proves that the compost soil is excellent, and that the garden care is somewhat neglected :)

On its way to the compost bin...
Most of the strawberries were lovely - this one seems to be growing rather a lot of mould !!!!!

Macro Mondays - Trick or Treat
Some years ago we warned local children that if they threw eggs at our house when denied a treat their compost heap would become infested with ghoulish horrors.
This creature was recently found on one of their garden paths - clearly tortured to reveal the location of where where others might be hiding. You have been warned!
No apples were actually harmed during the capture of this individual, it's a mock up.
The Flickr Lounge-Made Of Wood
These are wood pallets we got from a local business to use for our compost bins. The Rhubarb is growing on the left side and a volunteer Delicata Squash is growing in front of the bin.
Four months ago I took this picture because I felt so captivated by the ordinary details I found in these pieces of peppers I had sliced that were to be discarded. Even though this would become compost material I really appreciated the colors, shapes, and light I saw here. I find “real” food/fresh produce so beautiful and interesting in appearance and love how I feel so thankful and excited when thinking about the nutrients and benefits fresh produce provides for our bodies. I’m thankful I took the time to capture what I saw.
The largest of the abandoned barges I photographed on this day. The wood timbers are so substantial that they partially turn to compost long before they totally disintegrate. Some of the barges have a thicket of shrubbery growing on top; this one had smaller plants on the side.
Unloading is almost finished, and the 6D80 limestone train will soon form the 6H80 10.28 empties back to Tunstead.
At the time this service ran weekly, usually on a Wednesday. It was easy to capture as its speed through the unloader was so slow. Just as well, as coal workings were by then fairly infrequent as the last coal fired power station in the UK was due to close in 2024. The coal hoppers had arrived two days previously and the GBRF loco that brought them from Immingham left as a light engine.
On this day the temperature was just above freezing point with no wind, so it was on a fairly high output.
How we will miss these quiet giants that have been part of the UK landscape for over fifty years. This one started generating power in 1968 and has a maximum output of 2,000 megawatts.
Best enjoyed 'large'.
A careful look at the pile of coal will reveal two yellow mechanical shovels. They are constantly moving the coal to prevent fires which would occur due to the heating process that happens as the coal 'composts'.
The original swimming pool is still intact on the grounds of the circa-1910 Cornish Estate near Cold Spring, N.Y. There had to have been a great view of the Hudson Highlands down the slope before all these trees sprouted.

WEEK 15: APRIL 2008/2010 FLASHBACK – ENTROPY
We keep this little metal pail in our kitchen to throw out vegetable matter for compost.
I opened it today and thought, since the stuff hadn't decayed all that much, the variety of colors and textures were pretty cool. I thought it would make for an interesting photo for Entropy.
